This is a question about digital/physical art. I thought it might fit in here - if not please excuse the intrusion.
I am looking to commission a painting or digital work from an artist - who happens to be my sister. She is a published artist who is well embedded in the fantasy/fiction environment. She has done book covers, games, cards etc in a variety of mediums.
The only thing is that she will not give me a real answer about cost. I am going to get her to do a 18x20 piece for me and want to pay her fair market value. I have no idea what that would be. She just says "pay me whatever". I appreciate her being nice - but I want to be nice back at here!
Are there any artists out there that could give me an idea of cost for either digital, acrylic or oil fantasy portrait from a moderately successful artist?
Thanks
